Compact protector

ABSTRACT

A cosmetic safeguard that incorporates a soft, shock absorbing, reusable, hypo-allergenic material that is fit to size all product sizes on the market. The make-up palette is inserted into the sponge-like object for the purpose of absorbing the shock of the make-up compact if dropped or tossed around in the bottom of a bag to prevent the palette from breaking and disintegrating. It is either spherical or squarical, a conveniently sized device, that also maintains a light weight, and is an easily transportable and transferable platform. Additionally, the cosmetic device is a simple, light, and convenient compact housing multiple range of products and vendors. The consumer can interchange the make-up palette, safeguarding the compact while allowing the consumer to fit the individual&#39;s style on any given day.

This application claims priority to and takes the benefit of U.S.Provisional Patent Application Ser. No. 62/629,093 filed on Feb. 11,2018, the contents of which are incorporated by reference.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention

The present device relates generally to cosmetic devices, and moreparticularly to a combination cosmetic device to allow users to protecttheir make-up palette during usage and transport of the device.

Description of the Related Art

People have been wearing skin cosmetics and skin protectants forhundreds of years, dating all the way back to the ancient Egyptians andmany cultures indigenous to different continents. As skin cosmetics andskin protectants have become commonplace, more individuals of bothgenders purchase and utilize skin cosmetics and skin protectants forvarious reasons. With fast-paced lives, many individuals rush tocomplete their look prior to their departure. With a swift motion, thecompact may drop leading to the product's breakdown and in need of aprotective barrier.

Clearly the more people utilize skin cosmetics and skin protectants themore likely it is that the individual prefers to transport skincosmetics and skin protectants when leaving the home for on the spotfixes and touchups. This is also true for occasions when the user musttravel, and particularly when the travel is for short periods of time.As cosmetic containers are normally small in nature, these vessels tendto sink to the bottom of the transport systems, be it a bag, purse,pocketbook or automobile, often causing damage to the compact due to theweight of other items upon the compact.

There are numerous differing genres of products that individuals carrywith them for traveling or just leaving the house, including but notlimited to separate items such as blush, bronzer, compact powder, andeye shadow. All of these items need protection during transport toprevent fragmentation.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The present device, as illustrated herein, is clearly not anticipated,rendered obvious, or even present in any of the prior art mechanisms,either alone or in any combination thereof.

Therefore, it is a primary object of the present device to provide aspherical shaped or squarical shaped (being shaped as a square andhaving rounded edges) cosmetic compact that houses make-up palettes.

It is another object of the present device to protect the make-uppalette by absorbing the shock when dropped or tossed around preventingthe make-up from breaking and disintegrating.

It is another object of the present device to provide soft, reusable andhypo-allergenic design that houses a variety of make-up palettes sizesso a consumer can keep brand preferences.

It is yet another object of the present device to conserve money byvitiating the need to repurchase cosmetics due to disintegration andloss of product when dropped or crushed during travel.

It is yet another object of the present device to allow individuals toeasily switch between make-up palettes while on the move.

There has thus been outlined, rather broadly, the more importantfeatures of a cosmetic device that the detailed description thereof thatfollows may be better understood, and in order that the presentcontribution to the art may be better appreciated. There are additionalfeatures of the device that will be described hereinafter and which willform the subject matter of the claims appended hereto.

In this respect, before explaining at least one embodiment of the devicein detail, it is to be understood that the device is not limited in itsapplication to the details of construction and to the arrangements ofthe components set forth in the following description or illustrated inthe drawings.
